Hi guys, Ricky here with your Thursday Newsround.

:00:12.:00:13.

First up, the Government has promised to find new homes

:00:14.:00:16.

in the local area for all the people affected by the huge fire

:00:17.:00:19.

There will also be a special investigation into why

:00:20.:00:23.

the fire started and why it was so bad.

:00:24.:00:27.

The Queen has joined the praise for the emergency services

:00:28.:00:29.

and the people who've brought food, water and clothes to those people

:00:30.:00:33.

Newsround has spoken to some of the helpers.

:00:34.:00:37.

I came here with some food for them and some old toys that I don't play

:00:38.:00:41.

I feel bad for them because now they are going to be homeless.

:00:42.:00:47.

But I am actually kind of happy that people are bringing lots

:00:48.:00:50.

of food and toys and stuff for the babies and the kids.

:00:51.:00:56.

I went to the church and I started giving out some free food

:00:57.:01:08.

I came down here because I felt sorry for the

:01:09.:01:13.

I have clothes in the car that I was going to give to people who

:01:14.:01:19.

Later I am going to get some of my things from home and donate them.

:01:20.:01:26.

There are people that don't have anything any more.

:01:27.:01:28.

It is good that everyone is coming together to help the people in need.

:01:29.:01:34.

And don't forget, if you're upset by this or by anything in the news

:01:35.:01:37.

there's loads of advice at Newsround online.

:01:38.:01:41.

A date's been given for the first public test

:01:42.:01:43.

It's hoped the car - which has an fighter

:01:44.:01:47.

jet engine inside - will set a new land speed record

:01:48.:01:50.

Testing will take place on 26th October at a Cornwall airport.

:01:51.:02:01.

Next, to Australia and a creature you may

:02:02.:02:03.

It's called a Weedy Sea Dragon and experts down under

:02:04.:02:08.

Not far off the coast of Sydney in Australia is what is known

:02:09.:02:18.

People diving here find strange and beautiful creatures

:02:19.:02:24.

The locals call these guys "Weedies",

:02:25.:02:30.

otherwise known as Weedy Sea Dragons.

:02:31.:02:32.

Native to the coasts around Australia, they are related

:02:33.:02:35.

to sea horses and spend their time drifting in the water, blending

:02:36.:02:39.

The problem is these colourful creatures

:02:40.:02:46.

are becoming harder and harder to spot, and not just

:02:47.:02:48.

This is the best site in Sydney, so you can

:02:49.:02:54.

Other sites, particularly on the North side of

:02:55.:03:00.

Sydney, where they used to be a common occurrence,

:03:01.:03:02.

now you are lucky to find one and sometimes you find none.

:03:03.:03:05.

Marine biologists have come up with a clever plan to work out how

:03:06.:03:08.

They are asking divers to snap a picture of the

:03:09.:03:13.

The researchers are then using a kind

:03:14.:03:16.

of facial recognition software to identify each

:03:17.:03:18.

Every time they identify a new Weedy they give it a name to help keep

:03:19.:03:26.

track of it - kind of like a Facebook for Weedies.

:03:27.:03:30.

And it will tell us if it is David or Greg or Alicia,

:03:31.:03:34.

because every single new Sea Dragon we have gets a name so we can follow

:03:35.:03:38.

Weedy Sea Dragons are classified as near threatened, but

:03:39.:03:44.

the scientists reckon this research could provide enough info to have

:03:45.:03:48.

them listed as endangered, which is more serious.

:03:49.:03:53.

Scientists believe climate change could be a big part

:03:54.:03:55.

They say rising sea temperatures are killing

:03:56.:04:01.

the seaweed, which leaves them homeless.

:04:02.:04:04.

Once we lose them, we will never get them back.

:04:05.:04:06.

They were here hundreds of thousands of years ago.

:04:07.:04:09.

With our impact, losing them would be really sad.

:04:10.:04:14.

So, if you find yourself diving in Australia, snap a

:04:15.:04:18.

picture to make sure there are plenty of little Weedies swimming

:04:19.:04:21.

Now have you ever dreamed of what it must be like to play for Real Madrid

:04:22.:04:30.

Real Madrid legend Roberto Carlos wore a body camera when he went

:04:31.:04:36.

into action in a special match at Madrid's Bernabeu Stadium.

:04:37.:04:39.

We can get a taste of the action and even feel the roar

:04:40.:04:42.

Don't worry, guys - it's nearly Friday!

:04:43.:04:59.
